Day 7: Whats your dream job? (31 Day Blog Challenge)

If you've read my blog or know me in life, then you will know that I love photography. I've been taking photos for the past 10 years and I still feel like I have much to learn. I don't think I'm anywhere near where I want to be but each day is a day closer. My dream job involves photography but not in the way most would expect. If you browse over my blog or check out my website, you will see loads of seniors and just portraits in general. I love taking portraits but what I truly want to do is couture photography. I love models with ridiculous clothing on. I crave to take photos that tell a story with the way they look. I love to watch America's Next Top Model but not for the model part of it really. I love seeing the photos! I love to google beautiful images of fashion photography. Maybe one day I'll venture into this part of photography but for now, I need to grow in what I do. One thing I've always lacked in is confidence and I know that taking photos of those around me will help improve that.

I really love looking at the Dior and Juicy Couture ads. It's amazing what they come up with. One thing I lack is knowledge of the photographers in this field. I simply love looking at the art they create. I need to do my research of photographers but the truth of the matter is, I'm horrible at remembering names! I can pick out photographers by their work, not their names.

What photographer wouldn't want to do this type of work?!! It's the best of everything in my book. I suppose I've touched on a bit of the stylized photos and I want to do it again. I hope to do another shoot this summer more like this one of Juicy Couture. I did a Boho shoot with my nieces and it was so much fun!

You can find the rest of the photos at my website. These girls did a wonderful job and I look forward to taking more photos of them. Now to just come up with a theme!

Awwww, I'm kinda blushing right now!! You have no idea how good it makes me feel to hear others outside of my family like what I've done! Thank you all so very much and I have plans to keep moving that direction.

Well, I'm family, but I when I say that your work is beautiful and that you are very talented....I truly mean it! :) I have enjoyed watching your progress and I know that you have only scratched the surface of what you are capable of achieving. Looking forward to your next photo shoot! :)
